Prep & Landing: The Snowball Protocol

After their latest mission hits a snag, Lanny and Wayne are called into Santa’s office. Wayne, hoping to downplay his mistake, tells Santa about some of the other snafus he’s overcome on recent missions. Where the first two Prep & Landing specials, along with the Operation: Secret Santa short, have played out like mini action movies, The Snowball Protocol comes across more like a Christmas themed sitcom episode. One where the grumpy guy learns a valuable lesson about friendship. And as fun as some of the worldbuilding elements are in The Snowball Protocol, it would have been nicer to have this new special focus on a bigger story. Especially since it’s been over a decade since these characters had a chance to shine.
